Vacant job

Helping people achieve better health is one of the most important missions one can have. At Södra Älvsborg Hospital (SÄS), we are 3,700 employees with 120 different professions who contribute to this every day. Here, you will find security, career opportunities, a forward-looking spirit, and a strong sense of community.

About the Role

As a nurse, you will work both at our clinic, out on the hospital wards, and in patients' homes, through home visits and telemonitoring. We strive for continuity and offer varied tasks. A common thread in the duties is that you often work independently with your own clinic, making individual assessments and plans together with the patient, relatives, and caregivers. Examples of tasks may include individual or group patient education, interpreting breathing curves, and fitting and following up on the effect of respiratory aids.

You will also work with education and consulting services regarding respiratory technical aids towards SÄS, municipalities, and assistance companies. Collaboration with other actors in healthcare is thus the foundation of the work.

About Us at ART

We are an outpatient clinic that investigates, treats, and follows up on patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and hypoventilation. The respiratory aids we offer patients promote ventilation and prevent airway obstruction; some patients have a tracheostomy. ART is a multidisciplinary team that collaborates with other care units. We are a tightly knit team working in a learning environment. We have a person-centered approach and tailor care to the unique conditions of each patient, focusing on the education of patients, relatives, and staff.

Your Profile

We are looking for you who are a licensed nurse with broad competence and preferably experience from both outpatient and inpatient care. Prior knowledge in respiratory care and ventilator skills are meritorious, but we will also offer comprehensive internal training. The job requires that you have a valid driver's license (Category B). Experience from home healthcare/intensive care is meritorious. You should feel comfortable providing advanced medical treatment in the home environment where the patient is located. As a person, we want you to be secure, sensitive, flexible, independent, and trustworthy. You enjoy that changes in pace make the work stimulating and varied. We will place great emphasis on personal suitability.

If you are in your final semester of the nursing program or have less than four months of professional experience, we refer you to apply for our induction programs. Read more about SÄS induction offer for you as a newly graduated nurse here.
